Downtown Hillsboro Vision Statement

The revitalized downtown core and surrounding neighborhoods are the heart of Hillsboro—a “home town for the future.” Hillsboro’s downtown offers a unique atmosphere and mixture of lifestyles and choices. Residents, workers, students, retirees, and visitors feel safe in the neighborhoods, on the streets, and in public places. Gathering places foster meaningful connections and contribute to the community identity. Downtown Hillsboro is served by a transportation network that supports vehicular access, transit, walking, and bicycling. Access to parks, open spaces, schools, and the wider region is safe, efficient, and convenient. As the downtown community prospers over time with new private and public investments, the environmental, economic, and social assets of the downtown community are protected and enhanced for future generations.
